Eduardwww [97]3 years ago

Continental drift was a theory that explained how continents shift position on Earth's surface. Set forth in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, a geophysicist and meteorologist, continental drift also explained why look-alike animal and plant fossils, and similar rock formations, are found on different continents.

Travka [436]
<u>Answer</u>

So this is the reaction that happens. 
<span>C4H10 + O2 = CO2 + H2O </span>

<span>Balanced, it is </span>
<span>2C4H10 + 8O2 = 8CO2 + 10H2O </span>

<span>Given 1 kg or 1000 g of butane, use stoichiometry aka factor labeling aka conversions and mole ratios to get to grams of oxygen. </span>

<span>I'll do an example. Let's form water. Hydrogen is diatomic too. </span>
<span>2H2 + O2 = 2H2O </span>

<span>Given 1000 g of Hydrogen, I need to know how many grams of oxygen to use. To convert grams to moles,
I know that 1 mol of H2 equals 2.02 g. Then, for every mole of O2, there are 2 moles of H2. Then converting moles of O2 to grams, I know that one mole of it equals 32 grams. </span>
<span>[1000 g H2] x [1 mol H2/2.02 g H2] x [1 mol O2/2 mol H2] x [32 g O2/1 mol O2] </span>

<span>My answer would be  7.9 kg </span>

Identify the balanced chemical equation that represents a single displacement reaction. CF4 2Br2 ⟶ CBr4 2F2 3H2SO4 2Al ⟶ Al2(SO4
Simora [160]

Answer:

3H₂SO₄ + 2Al₂(SO₄)₃  → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

Explanation:

                           3H₂SO₄ + 2Al₂(SO₄)₃  → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

In this type of reaction, one substance is replacing another:

                      A + BC  →  AC + B

In a single displacement reaction, atoms replace one another based on the activity series. Elements that are higher in the activity series. Also, if the element that is to replace the other in a compound is more reactive the reaction will occur. If it is less reactive, there will be no reation.

In the first equation, fluorine is more reactive than bromine. Therefore, bromine cannot replace bromine.

In the second equation, the displacement is between hydrogen and aluminium. Hydrogen is lower in the activity series, this implies that aluminum will replace it.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:Although the term is quite new, our connection to nature is not. We depend on nature for our survival - without healthy ecosystems, our drinking water isn’t clean nor is the air we breathe. We also enjoy nature... studies show that people who spend time in nature tend to be happier than those that don’t. It can even act as a natural anti-depressant. With industry and urban sprawl expanding at unprecedented rates, Ecosystem Services attempt to translate the benefits we receive from nature into economic terms so we can better understand the trade-offs we are making between nature and industrial development.
